[CPSLibraries] FW: You're Invited: School Funding Forum

[Perez, Lisa E]

Dear Librarians:  Please share this information from the Golden Apple
Foundation with interested colleagues.

Lisa Perez

 

To CPS Librarians, Teachers and Administrators:
 
It's time to talk. 
 
Once again, Illinois has fallen short of adequately funding its public
schools. What happened in Springfield? How will it affect our schools?
And how can we move beyond temporary solutions to make real progress for
Illinois' children? 

National-Louis University, the Golden Apple Foundation and A+ Illinois
invite you to join fellow educators, policy-makers and media on October
6 for some fresh thinking about Illinois school funding. 

We've gathered a panel of experts who can pinpoint current concerns and
take an honest look at promising solutions for school funding in
Illinois. 

THE TIME IS NOW. 
Let's Talk: Illinois School Funding
Saturday, October 6, 1-4pm
National-Louis University, Chicago Campus
122 S. Michigan Avenue, 2nd floor atrium
